Chapter 444: The End of the Cave
After Inspector Di walked away, he said to one of the people who followed: "Fengwangfu sent it to the door to make trouble by himself, how can there be any reason to let them go?" ”
"Princess Chu really believed your words?"
"Am I wrong? Now there is a mess in the barracks, maybe it is a good thing done by King Feng's mansion, colluding with Suo Guo to take that position......" Inspector Di turned his head to look at the southeast, smiling, "I don't want to see if I am worthy." ”
"That's what you're saying. Xue Duwei is looking for you now, would you like to take the time to go over? ”
"Okay." Inspector Di nodded.
Xue Jinyi stood in front of the tent for a while, and when she saw "Pu Yang Xuan" walking towards her, she blinked, and quickly recognized that the person was Ai Yun.
"How's it going, is it all going well?" She asked, smiling.
Ai Yun stepped forward, took Xue Jinyi's hand, and looked at her eyes, "The arrangements are going well, what about you?" Tired, right? ”
He pulled a handkerchief from his bosom and gently brushed her face.
"Look, there's some grass and wood ash."
He showed Xue Jinyi a veil.
Xue Jinyi covered her mouth and smiled, "You have discovered such a small one, you are so careful." ”
Ai Yun grabbed her hand and pressed it on her heart, "Because you are my Ah Jin." ”
The two were no different from intimate husband and wife, and walked together to the tent where they lived, which made others look envious.
When he was about to reach the tent, a black shadow suddenly came out from the side and slammed straight into Ai Yun.
Ai Yun is a person who practices martial arts, and he instinctively wants to dodge, but Xue Jinyi tightened his arm to control his body, and let the black shadow crash into his arms, almost stumbling, knocking them all to the ground.
Ai Yun staggered a few steps, carefully supported Xue Jinyi, and asked, "Ah Jin, are you okay?" ”
Xue Jinyi shook her head, raised her eyes and looked over, and a somewhat panicked face came into view.
Xue Shen pursed his lips and hurriedly arched his hand, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bump into His Royal Highness the King of Chu and the Princess of Chu." ”
"Where are you in such a hurry?" Xue Jinyi asked in a cold voice.
Xue Shen was a little bored, and explained angrily: "I suddenly remembered that my saber was left on the school field last night, I have to hurry up and get it, in case it is taken away by a spy and killed, and thrown on the spot, wouldn't I be at a loss for words, right?" ”
Xue Jinyi raised her eyebrows, "No one here is a fool, and they won't judge who the murderer is based on just one object." ”
Xue Shen wanted to scold, very, very much, and said in a weird manner: "I know, but don't you want to get into trouble?" I won't bother His Royal Highness the King of Chu and the princess to show affection, and say goodbye. ”
Ai Yun nodded.
Xue Shen left in a hurry.
Xue Jinyi and Ai Yun returned to the tent.
"I think Xue Shen was a little wrong just now."
Ai Yun also felt the same way, "My subordinates will send someone to take a look immediately." ”
"Hmm." Xue Jinyi opened a gap in the door material and looked at the calm outside, "I hope it's best not to be involved." ”
Although Xue Shen is Sun Suci's son, but in the end, he is the eldest son of the Duke of Weiguo, if something goes wrong, can the Duke of Weiguo get out of the way?
No.
Xue Jinyi sighed silently, how much she hoped that some people could carry it clearly.
But people live in the world, and there are too many involved, and it is too difficult.
Xue Jinyi returned to the side of the case, and not long after, Jin Yang came.
"Princess, I haven't found any news about His Royal Highness the King of Chu yet." He hid his uneasiness, and said in a calmer tone: "There is nothing abnormal in the military camp of the locked country, and I haven't heard that they have caught any spies." ”
"Are you sure?" Xue Jinyi hurriedly asked.
Jin Yang said: "The methods of the Suo people are extremely cruel, once they catch the spy, they will not be able to kill him on the spot, but use torture to torture people to death." ”
Xue Jinyi listened, and although Jin Yang didn't give a specific example, she still shuddered.
Jin Yang continued: "And they will make a big disturbance to deter the whole barracks and make the spies dare not come again." ”
"At least Ah Xuan wasn't caught by the Suo people...... Xue Jinyi said in a low voice, but the living conditions on the desert are bad, how can the injured survive?
Jin Yang said: "The subordinates have sent additional people to find His Royal Highness the King of Chu, please wait a little longer." ”
"Okay." Xue Jinyi looked quite calm.
Ai Yun and Jin Yang went out together, and there were still many things waiting for "His Royal Highness the King of Chu" to do.
Xue Jinyi took a sip of hot water, which was the boiling water in the pot, and she didn't put a single tea leaf, but there was a faint bitter taste in her mouth.
She picked up the small bamboo whistle hanging on her waist, rubbed it carefully for a while, and put it to her mouth.
But she didn't blow it.
At this moment, it sounded, and only the people under Ah Xuan's hands appeared.
Xue Jinyi sighed lightly, put away the small bamboo whistle, picked up the book in her hand and continued to read.
Night was approaching, and in the dark cavern, there was only the faint sound of the wind blowing up dust and sand and rubbing against the stone walls.
A fat gerbil sniffed around, a little excited, as it smelled the aroma of food.
As if it was right in front of it, it quickened its pace, but what it came into contact with was not warmth, but a chill that scared it to jump a few steps away.
It sniffed again, tentatively approaching slowly.
It's cold, but it's deliberately full.
The gerbil squeaked happily and pounced.
However, it didn't rejoice for long, and before its four little feet could hit the ground, it was firmly wrapped in one hand.
"Squeak squeak...... "Squeak" the gerbil panicked and barked louder, kicking its four little paws around, but it was in vain to struggle with any enemy who was too large for it.
After a while, tranquility was restored in the cave.
After a while, a low gasp sounded.
Pu Yangxuan staggered to his feet, and after a moment of breath, continued to walk forward.
That little gerbil meat was enough for him, and his dizzy mind, thirsty lips and throat, and cold body couldn't stop him from moving forward again.
Pu Yangxuan was firm in his beliefs, and after feeling the wind blowing through his body gradually getting stronger, he gritted his teeth and took a big stride.
Finally, a little presence appeared in front of his eyes.
He blinked vigorously, and this time the light did not disappear, and it still appeared in front of him.
The corners of Pu Yangxuan's mouth raised into a smile, although it was very, very vague, but he believed that what he saw was real.
It seemed that he had walked for a long, long time, and a touch of orange-yellow light fell on him.
Like a long drought and rain, he closed his eyes and felt the subtle warmth brought by the light.
Very small, but enough for him.
Pu Yangxuan took a deep breath, and the air entering his body was like a sharp knife, slashing through his internal organs, but he didn't seem to feel pain, stepped on a stone, and reached out to touch the shiny stone crack that leaked down.
Maybe it was God's mercy that some stones blocked the entrance to the cave, and as long as he moved away, he would be free again.
